fabiano09:
you are a big fool and an empty vessel,i no hide mouth talk am.

What's dis one again naa? It hasn't gotten to this. I see this thread educative and fun that's why I partake in it but if it has gotten to this I will stop contributing in anyway... Please let's be matured. Honestly speaking I see us all here as one family trying to help each other evade dangers in our everyday life, then why the insult?. I learn alot from every negative and positive argument here... even Dru23 in question is also contributing a great lot, so is everyone of us. Fabiano please.......
Let's all argue with maturity...

[quote author=dru23 post=84976620][/quote]Wow, what a ride... Will get this for my Dad and wife someday...

dru23:
Maybe if it is possible to do research for few months ..we can compare Nigeria riders vs USA in both hostile environment and sane environment.... Years ago before uber, taxi drivers were getting rob and killed in New York and other parts of the US. Even with uber now, drivers were getting assaulted, accuse of rape etc. A lot of drivers starting installing cameras in their car ....If a person is bad, the person is regardless the environment.

The best way to curb bad riders in the Nigerian environment is to follow uber policy.... If you are ask to do something against policy of uber . You calmly say no and rate them accordingly .. Most drivers am sure don't even rate their riders.. The rating system is to help weed out bad riders and driver .. So rate them...

Now if you can't handle rude riders, that yell and scream etc .. And than you get easily upset and angry.. Uber is not for you.. Because even in the USA you have those type of ghetto riders or co worker that gets you so mad that you just want to land them hot slap.. So if you are landing everyone hot slaps that disrespects you , you either end up in jail or dead.. Yankee is free country, [s]we have more private gun owners than any country in the world.. How you handle situation matters o ... [/s]

Sorry, who be we, It's Naija not ur country again... "Just for laugh"

Felicity001:
Hahaha.... you guys are so funny here honestly... really Ok let’s celebrate him and give him some accolades.

Gentlelife said all those things cause he needs favour from him... That's Naija for you, tomorrow now, him go call dru23 make him send car for am at a cheaper price, make him the pay small small, as him paddy wey him be naa...
Abeg nobody should attack me oo. Am not feeling fine...

AngryIgboMan:
You can tell your story to the marines Sir! Any driver that listens to this your advise is at serious risk already. Am a realist and I choose not to be cowed into submission by any bagger rider.

What the likes of you and Dru23 don't understand is that we are all different! It all boils down to temperament. I repeat, IT ALL BOILS DOWN TO TEMPERAMENT. Just as our finger prints are unique, so is our temperament. You don't expect every human being to react same way to similar situations. That same I AM SORRY MA from driver A can become THUNDER FAYA U with driver B.

There are those you will never see react no matter what you throw at them. They are so thick skinned and mean.

But there are people like me who react energy for energy. I GIVE POSITIVE ENERGY FOR POSITIVE ENERGY. I ALSO GIVE DARK ENERGY FOR DARK ENERGY. Thats my principle of survival. I will use 3 different stories of my experience in Uber to illustrate.



Experience 1 (Gbam Gbam Gbam Gbam Gbam Gbam Gbam Gbam)

Me: Hello Ma. Good afternoon. You requested for Bolt. Is this address correct and where are you heading to?

Rider: What kind of stuppid questions are these? Oga please hurry because am late. I don't have time to answer nonsense.

Me: Madam, begin to trek to your destination immediately. Because if you enter my car, sorry is your name.

The woman fear cancel immediately.




Experience 2 (Tulululum Tulululum Tulululum Tulululum)

Me: Hello Ma. You requested for Uber. Am at Lateef Jakande. I want to confirm your address is 100001 Acme road.

Rider: Why are you not on your way yet? Oga am tired of these nonsense from you drivers. Am very late for church. 2 drivers have cancelled on me and I will be very angry with you if you cancel.

Me: Madam is that a threat? Hope you know this is my car right and am not your personal driver? You must behave well mannered if you want this ride to happen. Be courteous of your next words because you lack courtesy.

Rider: You must be very stuppid for implying I lack manners.

Me: Madam THUNDER FAYA You. Nkita lachagi gi anya dia

I cancelled and blocked her line with immediate effect.





Experience 3 (Tulululum Tulululum Tulululum Tulululum)

Me: Hello Madam. Good afternoon. You requested for Uber. Are you at 51b blah blah blah Lekky county homes and where are you heading to

Rider: Hello sir. Good afternoon. Please am heading just close by to buy food. Please don't cancel on me as many drivers have cancelled. Am really hungry. Please will you come?

Me: Am on my way ma.

After Trip, Uber said I should collect 330. Seems she is on small bonus. Madam gave me 400. I told her to keep it coz I wanted her to eat more.

Its my car after all and I can decide who to give free ride or not.


MORAL OF STORY

Ehailing in Nigeria is more of survival. You can be nice and die there being nice. Nobody really gives a fucck about you in this country especially in a cosmopolitan city like Lagos where everybody is mad and angry.

Nigerians are highly exploitative. Most of them that are nice to you is because they are already scheming on how to use you for one ulterior motive or the other. You mentioned he was asking the driver if he was married. What has that question got to do with anything?

In fact to me, that driver is very stuppid for entering the woman's house after the job. What if she accuse him of rape? What if she is a human parts dealer or a drug trafficker? You mentioned Anambra. Am from Ananmbra and am not trying to stereotype. But what if that woman was already seeing the young man as a conduit for drugs to Indonesia or Thailand? So many what ifs!

As far as am concerned, my work with you ends immediately I drop you. Infact, I clear call log after every trip to avoid temptation of calling you back or "keeping in touch".

In summary sir, Being nice in the face of obvious hostility can cost you your life in Lagos or elsewhere in Nigeria. This is not Europe. Things can escalate pretty quickly if you don't act smart.

By the way if I may ask, Dru23 that has been saying things about being enduring and humble in the Service industry in order to become a boss... What has he achieved with his live aside retailing Mobil oil amd arguing with people on Nairaland?

Hahaha. Burst my head. Savagery for this NL can make u laugh and chase out BP oo

Wehdone sir... How many drivers live there now?

dru23:
You need to focus your energy, on that rental you looking for.. Quoting me on nairaland only limits that energy .. ..redirect and refocus that can lead to better result...

Lol... You guys are just bunch of something else oo. When they the try to solve one, others the come up with another fight.. gbas gbos everywhere.

Masonxlt:

dru23:
So because you are an immigrant you don't have rights. Or immigrants can't legally work in the USA. Or better yet if you want to do uber in the USA . You just get a car and sign up with uber, than you start driving..
But are you aware uber does background checks on all of its drivers? Do you know that you have to have a valid drivers license to drive uber. Are you aware that you need a valid social security number to do uber? If you are illegal in the country it will hard to do uber? Unless you are using somebody else documentation? Do you know what you are saying at all

And you think immigrants with incomplete papers don't have a way over all dis procedures u just mention. You talk like you are not from Naija... This same USA is the same place Naija will start selling legit Uber account they got from legit drivers by hacking their account.

2ndly because I paid my landlord for 1year to leave in his house does not mean, I should play music on high volume at night, I should create a third window in his house, I should dirty the yard with dirts and not clean it. Even when you try to mount window unit AC, the landlord will tell you make sure u block it back an paint it before parking out. With all this, that does not mean that he is my boss neither am I his boss...

dru23:
With these your attitude, it means you can't do uber in the USA or customer service related jobs.... Uber Drivers in the USA do get similar rude customers.. But it is how you handle them that matters.... And keep in mind your presentation matters.. Just because you do uber, does not mean you shouldn't look presentable .. How you carry yourself and present yourself is how people will take you serious.... If riders are asking you to do this and that ,and those things are not inline with uber's policy.. Just let the rider know what the policy is .. There is system in place to grade riders .. Than grade them , after all they are grading you too..

PS.. A lot of drivers are in directly an employee of uber.. You an employee at will.. Meaning no contract was sign by either party....Uber can fire you at will and you can stop for them at your own will.. So everybody is slave or better yet a boss to someone.. Rider are bosses to uber, meaning if there is not enough riders.. Uber will not make money . And you as a driver will not get paid .. On that level people should play their position

That does not mean if Uber folds, car owners won't still make money.. so drivers can still get paid by riders if they go on taxi. Are you guys forgetting that they use to be strictly taxi before Uber and their likes. In other words, no one is any ones boss. Every one is his or her own boss.
My own little cents. Afterall am still looking for a car.

manny656:
Now say it without crying !

Hahaha. Funny fellow

Felicity001:
No kwams bro... me self na laff I take go bed last night no reason am o... things of such no dey enter my mind at all d only one wey dey pain me na my 1k that Jay of a guy use style collect but guys here have advised I should forget it and that I’ve done already but one thing is sure and which is “karma” because even God self said it what ever a man sows same will he also reap.

One love bro we all in the hustle together so I see no reason we should be attacking or fighting ourselves.
@prince3,@1dabio,@kodre,@mrjaydee,@peacefulhome and some lot more I can’t list twale to all of you guys are wonderful. Maybe we should set aside a day in January for a little get together so we can know ourselves.

Lol, so that you will block me and deal with me, abi. If u invite me, I won't come except you sign an undertaking that I will be untouched and will get back home safely.
[/b] Na joke ooo.[b]

Felicity001:
I don’t render appologies after a deliberate wrong doing it’s also a mockery, meaning in once mind, “I done tell am watin I won tell am already “. So young man keep your appologies and peace to yourself. Have got a lot already, I’m a proud man and a proud hustler that does his things in legit ways and I have no appologies for anybody and I regret nothing either if it turn out to be good or bad instead I see everything as life experience bringing me to fulfillment.

That's your person. Am also apologising on his behalf, "he is sorry"... What matter most he has apologize. U can keep urs, it's ur choice

Freshprince91:
I am sorry for my last sentence even though i felt you berated me with your last sentence but calling me stupid is off the radar. I am not going to trade words.
One love Baba! Peace!

I always love this guy level of maturity... Thanks baba. Don't exchange word please...

Freshprince91:
Yes, i did because after i got her water to clean up her vomit, i thought about dropping her off and zoom off, but then again, if those people around saw this and they started shouting ritualist and my car gets mobbed in traffic and i get lynched on before i could defend myself, people like you would ask why do i not drive her down to her destination, or have you forgotten how someone here narrated a story of how he picked up a guy, not knowing he was insane, yet he still managed to drive him home to his mother after so many waiting time ?
Why would i frame up a lie? To get a cheap publicity? Not like they share part of their earnings with the person with the most concocted lies. Common mehn! This forum has been a great deal of help to me and i am indebted to the people ( Tojahh, Chillex, Pope 191, Gentle life, Kodred, Izzou, aunty radu, Gazzuz ,eherbal ,Yinka, Mr Jaydee, Ndubuis ,Cooladex, fasa 191 and every other person i forgot to mention) who've shared their experiences and took me in like their little brother even though we haven't seen yet .
People like you are very judgemental but what do i know, you're still looking for a car to drive.

Loud oo, "still looking for a car to drive.
Hahaha

Stanfeelings:
do u know how long it took them to save up to that? what is the money is tampered with? ur suggestion no gel sir

Gel or no gel. What do I know, that was why I said "my own little contribution" I didn't ask for your rating though

ndubuis:
Take a deep breath little man. The frustration appears real. Do not make threats that you will not be able to stomach when the chips are down, Mr. Keyboard Warrior. Don't deliberately put yourself in a fix. Judging from the tone of your text, you and I shouldn't even be having a conversation. Have a great day. Not gonna respond anymore to you, just not worth it.

Comment reserved cause of freshprince nice words... We are famz, regardless'

ndubuis:
Exactly, if you can. Good luck trying to beat me

And you will sure go home with a lot of blood after we have spend enough time at the police.
Pray make u no see my kind of person as customer,
You will know that where ur madness stop na there another man madness start.

temb:
Good afternoon fellow drivers, I met a client through taxify sometimes two months ago, we started doing offline trips at which he paid for the first two trips, of which he eventually borrowed 20k promising to transfer it to my account after the trip, well as it happens both the 20k and the money for trip which Is worth 50k, he refuses to pay. BIKO PLEASE HELP A FELLOW DRIVER. His numbers are 07053134858, 09021008220. His name is david Bricks and in all social media with that same name. He knows me as Benjamin.

You say? Bros.
I should be sincere with you, even if na me I won't pay such amount of accumulated money. It's gone... Go devil shrine sef, except the money is nothing to me in terms of maybe i spend upto or more than 50k everyday...

ndubuis:
sorry but not to my detriment. Safety above any other considerations. It's a waste of time trying to correct me on this one. I kicked a rider out of my car for refusing to go down. I'll do it over and over again whenever I feel the odds are against me. No apologies.

And I will give you the beating of your life, if I can beat you, if you fail to return me at the pickup location with no charges.
And if you take me back it's ursef u are doing, by the time u do it for 1week. We will know who is lossin, me or you?...

ndubuis:
If I don't feel comfortable leaving you in my car, trust me, you will get down. I'll end the trip right there. You go do your worst, I'll respond in kind too. This issue came to the fore again because someone complained he left a rider in his car and his money was stolen. You may not have time to gather everything to safety just like tha on this job. But most of you are perfectionists until something goes terribly wrong.

You like argument so much. Is wrong telling ur riders to get down. Take it or leave it..
Imagine someone bashing ur car from behind and tells you sorry, because you need to go down and check if something it's damage, you will now ask your rider get down with you and check for damage behind ur car.
Sorry, I won't get down and if you end the trip, be sure to take me back where you pick me & I won't pay a dime but anything outside that, get ready to kill me cause we go fight kill oursef.
U can not come and be bringing ur house properties with you when you know that you are working, using the car for taxi, you should even carry ur laptop, your TV and your all ur savings into it vehicle.
It's work you came out for, no be travel you the travel...

GAZZUZZ:
None.

Both cars will wreck you at those prices advertised .

True talk brother... I the tell you oo

kodred:
Actually bro 250k is not too much. No be charity work investor come do. He/she needs a form of security. 250k is just 10% na.

Saving on the job is quite hard bro. The way you dey stone figures, e dey be you like say if you see car you go save that money sharp sharp ba? Lol until you enter, then you’ll know.

Sopcla:
Bro just here for survey to know the regulated HP payment terms to feedback my company and I’m not the only staff doing survey, this thread is basically for Uber drivers so a lot of people here already have cars they are driving so i know interest will be low here, do you think it’s easy to buy a 2M tokunbo car and give it out on 2.5M HP, a lot of people are out there looking for this offer so I’m not here to look for drivers, in fact we already have over 50 potential drivers trying to have a grab, and Iv even gotten more than 20 calls from interested people who read my post on this thread

Boss, your 250k too much for down payment. If I have that kind of money I will save and go into rental. When the money completes 1.5m, I will my own car...

brogxy:
Please what's is the update around there

Please she said I should ask you guys to stop calling her...
